Yep. He's just matching the insanity of his viewers akin to how the GOP is becoming the MTG party.

Tucker's marbles rolled away and down a sewer drain a long time ago. Remember way back in 2004 when Jon Stewart went after him on CNN's Crossfire?
"Here's what I wanted to tell you guys: Stop. Stop hurting America," Stewart said on the show. He referred to the hosts as "partisan hacks" and blamed the show for being divisive by reducing arguments to two-sided political theater...
"You're doing theater when you should be doing debate," said Stewart. "What you do is not honest. What you do is partisan hackery." When Carlson fired back with insults about The Daily Show, Stewart said that what he does is comedy, which is different. "You're on CNN. The show leading into me is puppets making crank phone calls. What is wrong with you?"
He eventually called Carlson "a dick" as the conversation continued, telling him he wouldn't be his monkey when Carlson asked Stewart to please just "be funny."

And he's only gotten worse.

to people ranking on him for the first one. Not that hes not deranged. But its in his best interest to keep the fight going.
